Background: It is not currently known how often nursing theory is cited in non-nursing publications.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to document citations of five nursing theories in non-nursing publications, including author discipline, type of publication, and publication discipline.

Methods: Over 75 non-nursing disciplines cited nursing theories and were consolidated for reporting purposes.

Discussion: Leininger, Pender, Parse, and Orem were most often cited in research articles, and Watson was cited more frequently in books.

Conclusion: Nurse scholars can use these findings to improve interprofessional education and practice and further develop and disseminate nursing knowledge.
